Ezek. 28:1, “The word of the LORD came to me again, saying, Ezek. 28:2, “ ‘Son of man, say to the prince of Tyre, “Thus says the Lord GOD: ‘Because your heart is lifted up, and you say, “I am a god, I sit in the seat of gods, in the midst of the seas,” yet you are a man, and not a god, though you set your heart as the heart of a god.’ ” ’ ”

Ezek. 28:11, “Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Ezek. 28:12, “ ‘Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say to him, “Thus says the Lord GOD: ‘You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. Ezek. 28:13, “ ‘ “ ‘You were in Eden, the garden of God; Every precious stone was your covering: The sardius, topaz, and diamond, Beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold. The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes was prepared for you on the day you were created.’ ” ’ ”

Deut. 32:17, “They sacrificed to demons, not to God, to gods they did not know, to new gods, new arrivals that your fathers did not fear.” 1 Cor. 10:20, “Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.”

1 Tim. 3:6, “not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil. 1 Tim. 3:7, “Moreover he must have a good testimony among those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.”

Ezek. 28:14, “You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you; You were on the holy mountain of God; You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones. Ezek. 28:15, “You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created [ bara’ ], till iniquity was found in you. Ezek. 28:16, “By the abundance of your trading you became filled with violence within, and you sinned; Therefore I cast you as a profane thing out of the mountain of God; And I destroyed you, O covering cherub, from the midst of the fiery stones.”

Ezek. 28:17, “Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor; I cast you to the ground, I laid you before kings, that they might gaze at you. Ezek. 28:18, “You defiled your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities, by the iniquity of your trading; Therefore I brought fire from your midst; It devoured you, and I turned you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all who saw you. Ezek. 28:19, “All who knew you among the peoples are astonished at you; You have become a horror, and shall be no more forever.”

The Origin of Satan and the Demons Isa. 14:12 , “How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who weakened the nations! Isa. 14:13, “For you have said in your heart: ‘I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation on the farthest sides of the north; Isa. 14:14, “ ‘I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.’ Isa. 14:15, “Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit.”
